"What, could it be that you calculated a hexagram for me, and this is more than lucky?" Tang Yi asked with a smile.

"When you go to Hainan Qiongdao, it's better to be secretive, I forgot to tell Zhang Lu just now." Wen Jia said solemnly, "Osamu Kono was deflated this time, I'm afraid that he will jump off the wall in a hurry!" ”

Tang Yi nodded, it's always right to be careful, and then called Zhang Lu to remind him to keep it secret.

"I don't need to say it, I have to keep it a secret! Today's timber merchants are tightly covering their own channels! Why did I go directly from Shudu? If I go directly from Hangzhou, I may be targeted, and when I meet the owner of the tree, there may be a bunch of buyers all of a sudden, competing for the price! Zhang Lu said immediately.

The next day, the two cleaned up and walked around several scenic spots in Shudu.

In the evening, Tang Yi called home and explained the situation in general, but he didn't say anything about his grandfather, but just said that he got some clues and would go back and talk about it in detail. This kind of thing is not easy to explain on the phone, which only increases Tang Zhongfeng's worry.

When she called Lin Huanting, Tang Yi first said that the trip was going well, and Lin Huanting was also very happy to hear that Tang Yi had completely handled the matter. Tang Yi took the opportunity to say that he had to go to Qiongdao for a few days.

"Going to Qiong Island again?" Lin Huanting's questioning voice was slightly disappointed.

As a result, before Tang Yi could respond, he heard Lin Chusheng's voice from the earpiece: "A good man is ambitious in all directions, and it is the right thing to develop business." ”

Tang Yi silently praised the future father-in-law in his heart, "I will come back soon, mainly because I want to expand the timber business." ”

Lin Huanting said "Okay", and then Tang Yi heard Lin Chusheng's satisfied laughter again, "Tang Yixing, this business is going very fast." ”

After hanging up the phone, Tang Yi thought to himself, if he really went to India, see if Lin Huanting was free, and just go to have fun together.

Zhang Lu was very good, and he had already booked a ticket for Tang Yi, and the two flew from Shudu to Qiongdao the next day.

After the plane landed in the provincial capital of Qiongdao, the two did not delay and immediately chartered a bus to a county called Wanshan.

This wild Hainan Huanghua pear is widely distributed in Qiongdao, roughly speaking, the eastern riverside, there is enough water, and the soil is fertile, so the trees grow quickly, and most of them are bran pears.

In some mountainous areas in the west, the land is relatively arid, and the land is not so fertile, and the sea yellow tree grows mostly in the mountainous areas, growing more slowly, and mostly avocado.

The bran pear is less oily, and the color is bright and the texture is beautiful. Because avocados grow slowly, they are dense, oily, and feel more delicate and smooth.

In the market, bran pears and avocados can be said to be good, and it is impossible to say who is good and who is bad. But if it is a large piece, it is obviously more suitable for avocados.

Wanshan County is located in the western mountainous area of Qiong Island, which is a typical production area of Haihuang. The place Zhang Lu mentioned is located on a relatively secluded hillside near a village in Wanshan County, and there are about a dozen trees.

Originally, these trees were also wild, and they were the ones that slipped through the net in the process of frenzied felling of sea yellow. Twenty years ago, a local villager surnamed Xie contracted a large hillside and found a dozen or so sea yellow trees that had not yet matured. He began to water and fertilize quietly, and now, five of the dozen or so sea yellow trees have reached maturity.

The little Xie of the year has now become the old Xie. Lao Xie and Zhang Lu met in the Wanshan timber market, in the past two years, Lao Xie often went to the timber market to inquire about the market, and met Zhang Lu who came to buy wood by chance. Zhang Lu behaved more boldly and got along well with Lao Xie. In the end, Lao Xie decided to sell the first batch of five trees to Zhang Lu.

When I arrived at the county seat, it was already evening, and it took two hours to get to the place. Zhang Lu discussed with Tang Yi, first found a hotel to stay, and then contacted Lao Xie and agreed to go to see the tree early the next morning. Lao Xie said that he would drive to pick him up early in the morning.

The next day, as soon as it was dawn, Lao Xie drove over. Lao Xie was thin and dark, with high cheekbones and big eyes, and he drove a huge Toyota domineering, and when he got out of the car, he was really a little uncoordinated.

After a simple greeting, Lao Xie also took the two of them to have breakfast, which is a special snack of Qiongdao, pickled powder. In fact, it is rice noodles with sour bamboo shoots, sausages, beef jerky, fried peanuts, bean sprouts, etc., and then mixed with marinade to eat.

Only then did Tang Yi know that Lao Xie had contracted the hillside, and he had really made a lot of money by planting winter fruits and vegetables on this tropical dry slope in the past few years, so he had not touched these dozen sea yellow trees.

Now that the price of sea yellow is rising, and five more trees are ripe, Lao Xie decided to try the water.

This method of gambling on wood, Lao Xie decided after comprehensive consideration. If you cut down and open these trees yourself, you can't make all of them, and it's unlikely that you will lose them all. If you prescribe good materials, it will be worse than directly setting prices to collect money to make people gamble; If it's miserable, it's better to gamble! On average, pricing by tree and passing on risks outweigh the disadvantages for Lao Xie.

This hillside, the place where the sea is yellow, there is a dry ditch below, people can't get through, and the trees on the periphery are relatively dense, and more than a dozen sea yellow trees are hidden between other trees, so it is very hidden. In addition, Lao Xie contracted this hillside, and also symbolically made some fence piles and barbed wire, which outsiders rarely entered.

To get to this hillside, you have to go up the slope in the other direction and go around it. The slopes where Haihuang grows are not high, generally below three or four hundred meters, and the slope here is relatively gentle, so it is not difficult to go up.

Lao Xie parked the car at the gate of his own yard in the village and took them to the hillside on foot to see the trees.

As soon as the three of them walked to the main road in the village, they found that three people were also walking towards them.

"Archie? What are you busy with? Lao Xie greeted one of the sturdy middle-aged men.

"The forked pear in my backyard has been a lot thicker in recent years, and it's time to change money, these two are buyers from Fujian Province." The middle-aged man known as Archie replied.

It turned out that in the backyard of Archie's house, there was also an old sea yellow tree, but it began to fork from a height of more than half a meter, and it was divided into two strands, like a big slingshot, and there were many forks on it, but the thickness of the trunk and the two large forks has been "progressing" slowly. In the past few years, it has suddenly begun to become thicker, and Archie has moved to sell it.

After seeing the tree, the merchant will set the price and pay the money to cut down the tree.

"I've heard about the preciousness of Haihuang for a long time, but I haven't seen a living tree yet, can we go and see it?" Zhang Lu glanced at Lao Xie.

Old Xie Xin said, Haihuang has become a rare treasure now, anyway, it's still early, just take a look, just take a look, just take a look at it, and just see how Archie sells it.

"Archie, I have two friends who have come to play, and they haven't seen the sea yellow tree, and they want to see it too!" Lao Xie then spoke.
